Mittageisen
"Mittageisen" is a song by English post-punk band Siouxsie and the Banshees. Originally appearing on the band's 1978 debut album ''The Scream'' as "Metal Postcard (Mittageisen)", the track was re-recorded in 1979, this time with the lyrics sung in German, and released as a single in West Germany. Later in September of that year it was given a UK release by record label Polydor.
== Content and sleeve ==
The title "Mittageisen" is a word play based on the German words "Mittagessen" (literally: "noon meal", i.e. lunch) and Eisen ("iron"). The title was inspired by John Heartfield's photocollage ''Hurrah, die Butter ist Alle!''〔(''Hurrah, die Butter ist Alle!'' full original poster )〕 ("Hurray, the Butter is Finished!"), which was also used as the single's cover art.
Heartfield's photocollage was initially used on the front page of the ''Arbeiter-Illustrierte-Zeitung'' (''Workers Illustrated Journal''), published on 19 December 1935. Heartfield (1891–1968) was an early member of Club Dada, which started in 1916 as Cabaret Voltaire in Zürich. The picture with the title 'Hurrah, die Butter ist Alle! / Hurray, the butter is finished!' shows a family who eats various pieces of metal. The trigger for it was the following quote from Hermann Göring: "Iron always made a nation strong, butter and lard only made the people fat".
